Park & Orchard Restaurant

This place is CLOSED - out of business - too bad.

I've had dishes that i liked as well as those i didn't, but each time everything is well prepared and presented. I'm not going to blame the restaurant for my finicky taste buds, as some on here have.
The atmosphere here is fun, but it can get extremely noisy when crowded, as it is essentially a dining room in a warehouse with shabby chic decor.
The wine list, beer selection and drink list are all extensive with some great choices, regardless of your preference.
My wife had my surprise 40th here and it was outstanding from every guests perspective.

Great food and wine list. Something for everyone, and many gluten-free options. My favorite is the fire chicken if you like very spicy!

WOW!!! There are very few restaurants that leave an amazing impression such as Park & Orchard. I arrived with a friend and did not have a reservation. Management was super excellent in taking care of us even though their regulars were also there -- guests who go the same day a week and sit at their table for years. From the strawberry and almond salad with fresh house dressing to the flavorful chicken sausage dinner... .wow. I have a seafood allergy and the staff was clear with their care of my dishes and the manager stopped by to make sure that all was well. It's all in *details* for me when I enjoy dinner. The portions were perfect, leaving just enough space for coffee and dessert. I shared that with my friend -- who does not particularly care of dessert (or chocolate) -- and we were both amazed at the freshness of the apple pie (super yummy!!!).

It is rare to see staff know dinner guests by their first name, ask about family members and be sincere and genuine when talking to them.

This is a restaurant to visit but PLEASE make reservations because you may not be as fortunate as we were to be seated in this one-of-a-kind restaurant.

It is hard to tell if I like this restaurant or not. I was there maybe ten years ago and I went back today to try it again. (08-09-08) The service was good. The food was very good. I had the wheatless and dairy free lasgana. The meal was nicely seasoned and the sauce was very tasty. But, the issue for me, is the vibe of the place. I get a really odd feeling whenever I have been there. I just do not feel comfortable. I guess, it is the warehouse look and the "everyone is staring at me vibe" or, maybe it is built over an ancient burial ground. ? Food - 3 stars, Service - 3 stars and ambiance - zero stars.
